Hi All,
Just getting started with Ansible and I'm having issues with some of the
sudo stuff.
I have a user deployer, who has limited permissions on the server. Neither
deployer nor root have a password set, I'm using ssh keys for deployer.
I am trying to give deployer permission to stop/start services on the
server, and have tried to give them access in sudoers:
deployer ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/service
In my playbook I have a task:
tasks:
- name: Stop Nginx
sudo: yes
service:
name: nginx
state: stopped
>From what I can see, the "sudo: yes" causes the script to be wrapped in an
Ansible sudo call, which uses /bin/sh to run the generated script. As the
user doesn't have permission to run /bin/sh as root the result is the play
locking up waiting for a password to be entered.

I could set the user to have permission to run /bin/sh, but that seems
incorrect (may as well set it to ALL, which btw does work as I desire).
Is this something that I can resolve either in sudoers, or in the Ansible
script?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers, Cameron
